2015-03-19fetch_refs_via_pack: free extra copy of refsLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+5
When fetch_refs_via_pack calls fetch_pack(), we pass a list of refs to fetch, and the function returns either a copy of that list, with the fetched items filled in, or NULL. We check the return value to see whether the fetch was successful, but do not otherwise look at the copy, and simply leak it at the end of the function.

2015-01-07send-pack.c: add --atomic command line argumentLibravatar Ronnie Sahlberg1-0/+4
This adds support to send-pack to negotiate and use atomic pushes iff the server supports it. Atomic pushes are activated by a new command line flag --atomic. In order to do this we also need to change the semantics for send_pack() slightly. The existing send_pack() function actually doesn't send all the refs back to the server when multiple refs are involved, for example when using --all. Several of the failure modes for pushes can already be detected locally in the send_pack client based on the information from the initial server side list of all the refs as generated by receive-pack. Any such refs that we thus know would fail to push are thus pruned from the list of refs we send to the server to update. For atomic pushes, we have to deal thus with both failures that are detected locally as well as failures that are reported back from the server. In order to do so we treat all local failures as push failures too. We introduce a new status code REF_STATUS_ATOMIC_PUSH_FAILED so we can flag all refs that we would normally have tried to push to the server but we did not due to local failures. This is to improve the error message back to the end user to flag that "these refs failed to update since the atomic push operation failed."

2014-10-15refs.c: change resolve_ref_unsafe reading argument to be a flags fieldLibravatar Ronnie Sahlberg1-2/+3
resolve_ref_unsafe takes a boolean argument for reading (a nonexistent ref resolves successfully for writing but not for reading). Change this to be a flags field instead, and pass the new constant RESOLVE_REF_READING when we want this behaviour. While at it, swap two of the arguments in the function to put output arguments at the end. As a nice side effect, this ensures that we can catch callers that were unaware of the new API so they can be audited.

2014-09-15signed push: add "pushee" header to push certificateLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
Record the URL of the intended recipient for a push (after anonymizing it if it has authentication material) on a new "pushee URL" header. Because the networking configuration (SSH-tunnels, proxies, etc.) on the pushing user's side varies, the receiving repository may not know the single canonical URL all the pushing users would refer it as (besides, many sites allow pushing over ssh://host/path and https://host/path protocols to the same repository but with different local part of the path). So this value may not be reliably used for replay-attack prevention purposes, but this will still serve as a human readable hint to identify the repository the certificate refers to.

2014-09-15push: the beginning of "git push --signed"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
While signed tags and commits assert that the objects thusly signed came from you, who signed these objects, there is not a good way to assert that you wanted to have a particular object at the tip of a particular branch. My signing v2.0.1 tag only means I want to call the version v2.0.1, and it does not mean I want to push it out to my 'master' branch---it is likely that I only want it in 'maint', so the signature on the object alone is insufficient. The only assurance to you that 'maint' points at what I wanted to place there comes from your trust on the hosting site and my authentication with it, which cannot easily audited later. Introduce a mechanism that allows you to sign a "push certificate" (for the lack of better name) every time you push, asserting that what object you are pushing to update which ref that used to point at what other object. Think of it as a cryptographic protection for ref updates, similar to signed tags/commits but working on an orthogonal axis. The basic flow based on this mechanism goes like this: 1. You push out your work with "git push --signed". 2. The sending side learns where the remote refs are as usual, together with what protocol extension the receiving end supports. If the receiving end does not advertise the protocol extension "push-cert", an attempt to "git push --signed" fails. Otherwise, a text file, that looks like the following, is prepared in core: certificate version 0.1 pusher Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 1315427886 -0700 7339ca65... 21580ecb... refs/heads/master 3793ac56... 12850bec... refs/heads/next The file begins with a few header lines, which may grow as we gain more experience. The 'pusher' header records the name of the signer (the value of user.signingkey configuration variable, falling back to GIT_COMMITTER_{NAME|EMAIL}) and the time of the certificate generation. After the header, a blank line follows, followed by a copy of the protocol message lines. Each line shows the old and the new object name at the tip of the ref this push tries to update, in the way identical to how the underlying "git push" protocol exchange tells the ref updates to the receiving end (by recording the "old" object name, the push certificate also protects against replaying). It is expected that new command packet types other than the old-new-refname kind will be included in push certificate in the same way as would appear in the plain vanilla command packets in unsigned pushes. The user then is asked to sign this push certificate using GPG, formatted in a way similar to how signed tag objects are signed, and the result is sent to the other side (i.e. receive-pack). In the protocol exchange, this step comes immediately before the sender tells what the result of the push should be, which in turn comes before it sends the pack data. 3. When the receiving end sees a push certificate, the certificate is written out as a blob. The pre-receive hook can learn about the certificate by checking GIT_PUSH_CERT environment variable, which, if present, tells the object name of this blob, and make the decision to allow or reject this push. Additionally, the post-receive hook can also look at the certificate, which may be a good place to log all the received certificates for later audits. Because a push certificate carry the same information as the usual command packets in the protocol exchange, we can omit the latter when a push certificate is in use and reduce the protocol overhead. This however is not included in this patch to make it easier to review (in other words, the series at this step should never be released without the remainder of the series, as it implements an interim protocol that will be incompatible with the final one). As such, the documentation update for the protocol is left out of this step. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-06-20refactor skip_prefix to return a booleanLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+3
The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use for two reasons: 1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable. For example: tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"); if (tmp) buf = tmp; 2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as you need extra parentheses to silence compiler warnings. For example: if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo")) /* do something with cp */ Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but means we are repeating ourselves). This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean, and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This lets you write: if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg)) do_foo(arg); else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg)) do_bar(arg); Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-03-05push: detect local refspec errors earlyLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+6
When pushing, we do not even look at our push refspecs until after we have made contact with the remote receive-pack and gotten its list of refs. This means that we may go to some work, including asking the user to log in, before realizing we have simple errors like "git push origin matser". We cannot catch all refspec problems, since fully evaluating the refspecs requires knowing what the remote side has. But we can do a quick sanity check of the local side and catch a few simple error cases. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-12-10fetch: support fetching from a shallow repositoryLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+8
This patch just put together pieces from the 8 steps patch. We stop at step 7 and reject refs that require new shallow commits. Note that, by rejecting refs that require new shallow commits, we leave dangling objects in the repo, which become "object islands" by the next "git fetch" of the same source. If the first fetch our "ours" set is zero and we do practically nothing at step 7, "ours" is full at the next fetch and we may need to walk through commits for reachability test.

2013-12-10clone: support remote shallow repositoryLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+8
Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new .git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom. Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others are dropped. One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not reachable by any refs). If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not desired. Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster everyday. A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8 steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

2013-08-07fetch: work around "transport-take-over" hackLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
A Git-aware "connect" transport allows the "transport_take_over" to redirect generic transport requests like fetch(), push_refs() and get_refs_list() to the native Git transport handling methods. The take-over process replaces transport->data with a fake data that these method implementations understand. While this hack works OK for a single request, it breaks when the transport needs to make more than one requests. transport->data that used to hold necessary information for the specific helper to work correctly is destroyed during the take-over process. One codepath that this matters is "git fetch" in auto-follow mode; when it does not get all the tags that ought to point at the history it got (which can be determined by looking at the peeled tags in the initial advertisement) from the primary transfer, it internally makes a second request to complete the fetch. Because "take-over" hack has already destroyed the data necessary to talk to the transport helper by the time this happens, the second request cannot make a request to the helper to make another connection to fetch these additional tags. Mark such a transport as "cannot_reuse", and use a separate transport to perform the backfill fetch in order to work around this breakage. Note that this problem does not manifest itself when running t5802, because our upload-pack gives you all the necessary auto-followed tags during the primary transfer. You would need to step through "git fetch" in a debugger, stop immediately after the primary transfer finishes and writes these auto-followed tags, remove the tag references and repack/prune the repository to convince the "find-non-local-tags" procedure that the primary transfer failed to give us all the necessary tags, and then let it continue, in order to trigger the bug in the secondary transfer this patch fixes.

2013-05-28clone: open a shortcut for connectivity checkLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+4
In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list --objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in this special case. In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...": - all refs point to an object in the pack - there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack - no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack. "index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack + rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list ..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the other side is either buggy or malicious. Cloning linux-2.6 over file:// before after real 3m25.693s 2m53.050s user 5m2.037s 4m42.396s sys 0m13.750s 0m16.574s A more realistic test with ssh:// over wireless before after real 11m26.629s 10m4.213s user 5m43.196s 5m19.444s sys 0m35.812s 0m37.630s This shortcut is not applied to shallow clones, partly because shallow clones should have no more objects than a usual fetch and the cost of rev-list is acceptable, partly to avoid dealing with corner cases when grafting is involved. This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that code path.

To a human reader, it is quite obvious that cmp is assigned before it is used, but gcc 4.6.3 that ships with Ubuntu 12.04 is among those that do not get this right. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-03-21transport: drop "int cmp = cmp" hackLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
According to 47ec794, this initialization is meant to squelch an erroneous uninitialized variable warning from gcc 4.0.1. That version is quite old at this point, and gcc 4.1 and up handle it fine, with one exception. There seems to be a regression in gcc 4.6.3, which produces the warning; however, gcc versions 4.4.7 and 4.7.2 do not.

2013-03-05push: --follow-tagsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
The new option "--follow-tags" tells "git push" to push annotated tags that are missing from the other side and that can be reached by the history that is otherwise pushed out. For example, if you are using the "simple", "current", or "upstream" push, you would ordinarily push the history leading to the commit at your current HEAD and nothing else. With this option, you would also push all annotated tags that can be reached from that commit to the other side. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
